We were taught, when you blow that whistle, you better have a hand up, a fist up, or two thumbs up.
Never really gave it much thought, but why have a "stop the clock" signal on violations? Is there any time the whistle itself doesn't stop the clock?

I think without the stop clock signal prior to all fouls/violations we dont allow ourselves (HS & small college) an opportunity to discuss & get the play right in the case of conflicting calls.

That is a good reason...it gives a brief preliminary communication to your partner about the nature of the call you have. Secondly, I know I've been in gyms so loud at the end of a close rivalry game that the scorer/timer just couldn't hear the whistle no matter how loud we blew it. The only thing they had to go on was the raising of our hand.

This is exactly why I hate going straight to the jump ball signal instead of putting my hand in the air first.

I don't know what's stopping officials from discussing a play even if one comes up with a travel/jump ball and the other a foul...in fact I've seen this scenario play out plenty of times. Get together...discuss the order of events...tell the coach one event happened before the other...continue on.
The only reason I can see for going hand straight up is possibly if the gym is real noisy...and to slow down an official that needs it.

What ???
In what mechanics rule set (NFHS, IAABO, NCAA-M, NCAA-W, FIBA, NBA) are you supposed to put your hand up before giving the a held ball signal?

Coaches do look for that preliminary signal, especially on a double whistle.
